Running In The Fast Lane Continued From Page 1 Eleanor Bennett Incumbent councilwoman Eleanor Bennett has sported full-page ads in every Newspaper since the primary election. She has stressed that if re-elected, she will work for controlled con-trolled growth, better ordinances and inspection, acquisition of park land, low cost housing, and better communication com-munication between City Hall and the citizens. "In my campaign I'm just trying to get my ideas across to the public, that's all," Miss Bennett said. "The words in my ads are to convey my innermost hopes for Park City and what I can do to reach those ends. I'm stressing my experience as a councilman. council-man. "I've been fortunate to have had money offered to me for my advertising, or I could never had done it myself. I had cards printed for the primary, flyers for registration, brochures and then full-page ads. I'd estimated a couple of thousand dollars has been spent. "In campaigning, I think eyeball-to-eyeball contact is very important. Last Saturday I covered most of Thaynes Canyon door to door. I talked to those who invited me in, and left my brochures. I am presenting myself, not selling myself. "I'll be glad when this is over. It's hard work and time-consuming. Being on the council is a big responsibility and it weighs heavily. I'm hopeful I'll be re-elected, and I'd like to be back there helping Park City. 'I haven't had a committee for the campaign, but people have called and asked if they could help me. And I ask them to talk to their friends and get them to the polls. Before next Tuesday I want to cover parts of every area of the city. "This year is nothing compared to my campaign in 1975. I'm much more active and so are the other candidates. candi-dates. Heavens, the only money I spent four years ago was $8.75 for a newspaper ad! This year, it's hard work and a lot of time. But it will be worth it. I'll be glad when Tuesday gets here I don't think I've ever seen so many different kinds of front doors in my life! Bill Bertagnole Bill Bertagnole also has had campaign cam-paign contributions to help defray his estimated $1,300 election investment. "My advertising strategy has been that people who know me know me for what I am, and those who don't know me, I presented what I stand for," Bertagnole said. "The big key to getting my name around is the support I've gotten through friends who've talked about me and passed my name on. i've got a committee who have broken up the voting lists and we're trying to call everyone. Win, lose or draw, we're waking people up and getting them interested in the election. "I have no idea what will happen next week. I expected I'd be in the top six in the primaries because I have a wide range of friends and my name is known. In my campaign I've tried to point out there are a million things that would make this town more liveable. It's a tourist town and we need to deal with it do it once and do it right, that's my main motto. "I figure I can't lose," Bertagnole said. "I either win or I get defeated and win anyway becausa it will save a big headache!" Greg Lawson Planning Commissioner Greg Law-son Law-son said his quest for one of the three City Council seats has cost him about $1,200 in advertising expenses. Newspaper News-paper advertisements, flyer and a brochure have added to the eight volunteers getting the Lawson name around. "I've done the best I can campaigning campaign-ing for the election," Lawson said. "But it's hard for me because I have a full time job in Salt Lake and can't spend too much time every day campaigning. But I try to put in two or three hours myself each day doing a little of everything phoning, talking on the street. "In talking to people I have picked up on a few new things that are concerning people, so the campaigning campaign-ing has helped me, too. But I'll definitely be glad when it's over next week." Tina Lewis Last year's Arts Festival director has put on one of the more ambitious newspaper advertising campaigns. Each week Tina Leewis supporters appear in ads with quotes attesting to her abilities in serving the city. "My campaign, I feel, has been the original grassroots campaign," Mrs. Lewis commented. "My strongest asset is my ability to work with people, and I've put together a campaign organized on people-to-people contact. I talk to my friends, and they to theirs. I have no posters or signs because I don't like them. And no brochure because I feel it's too glossy for Park City. "I've had a ball putting together the campaign because I've met so many new people. I've tried to start a chain reaction by going door to door, calling people, and speaking to groups I know are meeting. It's been a lot of work but a lot of fun, even more so than I had thought. Everyone sees Park City from their own point of view and it has been very interesting hearing from them. I spent a wonderful evening with the Senior Citizens and hearing about Park City from their 50-year viewpoint compared to someone who just recently moved here. "I've been very fortunate in having about 100 people halping me and people have contributed to the "Elect Tina Lewis Fund." I could've done a really slick brochure, but that just wasn't me, I need more one-to-one contact. "I think things are going really well and we're putting in a big push over the next week. I have great faith in the people-to-people approach. I think it's going to be a very, very close race, but I have no pre-conceived notion who the victors will be. If I lose, I will feel the whole experience was wonderfully educational and definitely worth it. But I want to win and I know I can do a good job. I've got a lot of energy and I'm rarin' to goVT Tom Shellenberger "I've tried to explain the issues to people and answer their questions on where I stand," said candidate Tom Shellenberger of his campaign. "In the course of conversations I've come across some interesting problems I hadn't necessarily throught of before like people concerned about solar energy, or the older folks thinking the city is not responsive to their needs. "With my first group of ads, I just tried to get my name and face known they were more of a general nature, In the past weeks I've addressed some issues to let people know where I stand. I'd say it has cost a couple of thousand dollars. That's been contributed for the most part, or I couldn't have done it. "I was flattered by the results of the primary (Shellenberger was the second highest vote-getter). I feel optimistic, but I won't let down until the last minute. Thomas Dewey did, and look what happened to him. Hardly anyone knows his name. "I have about 50 volunteers and we're trying to call every registered voter. I've devoted all of my off-work hours to the campaign and have put in another 40-hour week most weeks. The job of City Councilman can't be nearly as hard as this ! "I think we're at the crossroads in Park City's future and there are a lot of decisions to made. If elected, I don't think I'll have any problems because I've been exposed to that type of thing as a fire commissioner. "I'm sure we could all use more time to campaign, but I've tried to do an adequate job. I feel good about what I've accomplished with the campaign. I'll be glad for next Tuesday." Vote For a town the size of Park City, enormous amounts of time, energy and money have been spent on this campaign and it marks a major turning point in local politics. With all the effort that has gone into presenting the qualifications and platforms of the candidates, it's hoped Park City residents will take the time to vote on Tuesday. Letters To The Editor Continued From Page 1 and others adding 80,000 when they connect. This leaves capacity for an additional addi-tional 620,000 gallons, or about 2,060 connections. It would be foolish for any government agency to build plant capacity to serve all recorded lots, as if they were all going to be built upon next month. Instead, responsible agencies incur no more public debt than warranted by realistic building projections. projec-tions. The new plant is designed so that its capacity can be doubled at the present site to serve an additional 5,000 units when needed. It would be ludicrous to build that capacity now, paying interest on the debt while the capacity remained unused. If these candidates insist upon wasting money, let them buy ten new police cars and hire ten patrolmen to protect the approved future population. It would be a less costly mistake. Sincerely, Bruce C. Decker District Manager Snyderville Basin S I D. Thanks To Police Editor: We would like to express our appreciation to Lt. Robert Berry and Chief Mike Crowley of the Park City Police Department on behalf of Timberhaus Ski Shops, Inc. for making a presentation presenta-tion at our Employee Training Train-ing Clinic last week. The information the officers brought to us on shoplifting, bad checks, fraudulent IDs, burglary and employee theft should prove invaluable throughout our ski season. We, in Park City, are fortunate to have a Law Enforcement Department that is educated and interested inter-ested in crime prevention and eager to share that knowledge with the local businesses. We are glad that we took advantage of this service. Thank you, again, Lt. Berry and Chief Crowley for your time and interest!
